Sentara MyChart
We encourage all of our patients to sign up for Sentara MyChart. It’s a great way to communicate with your care team, schedule an appointment, request a prescription refill and view test or lab results – all on your own time. It also keeps you up to date on when you’re due for routine vaccinations or other preventative screenings so that you can be a more active – and proactive – part of your healthcare team.
Patient Resources
One of the ways we deliver quality care is by helping connect you to additional information and resources even in between your visits to our office. Explore our Health & Wellness section to find videos, blog posts and links to online resources, as well as information about behavioral health and a wide-range of disease-specifics support groups offered at Sentara.
